Burak Kara/Getty Images Dirk Kuyt’s agent, Rob Jansen, has discussed the Liverpool legend’s role at Fenerbahce and his chances of securing the position permanently. The Turkish giants subsequently appointed Kuyt as interim manager after he had served as Kartal’s assistant.
However, he suggested that strong performances in the coming matches could put Kuyt in contention to remain in charge until the end of the season, citing Ruud van Nistelrooy’s spell at Manchester United as a similar case. Jansen also confirmed that Fenerbahce are aware of Kuyt’s ambitions, but stressed that the immediate priority is the next three matches, with decisions about his future likely to follow afterwards.
“Yes, of course Fenerbahce are aware of Dirk’s ambitions, but first, the focus is on these three matches. Then, Kuyt will face his former club Liverpool in Istanbul in the Champions League next week as Fenerbahce look to revive their European campaign.
